Spike[edit]
Should this be merged with Spike? "Gabon" is Spike's Japanese name, and he's consistently kept it in most of his appearances in Japanese versions of games. --YellowYoshi398 20:41, 2 February 2007 (EST)
Seems like just the basic subspecies. No merge.
- Yoshi Master
- I agree. Don't merge it. Hisak 12:32, 2 June 2007 (EDT)
I also agree, they act, look and are named differently. They could have another name in the Japanesse version, ya'know. Gofer
Just a Character?[edit]
If I remember right, wasn't Gabon just a character in the intermission between levels? Perhaps you guys are looking at a player's guide, but I'm pretty sure that the intermission was just a reference the single character that's mentioned in the article. Basically, does anyone have any proof that this is a separate species and not just a single character? Stumpers! 13:09, 5 January 2008 (EST)
Kirby?[edit]
Gabon shares the exact same name with a Kirby enemy, although the two are drastically different: [1] Should I state that as trivia?--FREAK ~Game

This enemy's name is a transliteration of the Japanese name of Spike. Additionally, the two look and act similarly. Therefore, the different name is probably a simple translation oversight.
